Heres Why the Global Warming Hiatus Might Not Exist

Climate Central: The global warming hiatus a decade-plus slowdown in warming could be chalked up to some buoys, a few extra years of data and a couple buckets of seawater. Thats the finding of a new study published on Thursday in Science, which uses updated information about how temperature is recorded, particularly at sea, to take a second look at the global average temperature. The findings show a slight but notable increase in that average temperature, putting a dent in the idea that global warming has slowed...

Study dismisses 'hiatus' in global warming, says temperatures up

Reuters: An apparent slowdown in the pace of global warming in recent years may be an illusion based on skewed data, according to a study on Thursday that found no break in a trend of rising temperatures. In 2013, the U.N. panel of climate experts reported a "hiatus" in warming since about 1998, despite rising man-made emissions of greenhouse gases. That heartened skeptics who say the risks of climate change have been exaggerated. The new U.S. study in the journal Science, based on a re-analysis of...
Burning Coal is Hot, Global Warming Produced Even Hotter

Scientific American: Think of a holiday road trip's effect on the climate this way: The amount of heat a car contributes to the atmosphere because of its carbon emissions may be 100,000 times greater than the actual heat given off by its engine. That's the conclusion of a Carnegie Institution for Science study published Tuesday that shows two things: Emissions from burning a lump of coal or a gallon of gas has an effect on the climate 100,000 times greater than the heat given off by burning the fossil fuel itself....

Global warming: Greenhouse gas warming takes only weeks be felt

Business Times: The warming from carbon dioxide released by burning a lump of coal exceeds the heat generated by the combustion in just 34 days. It takes 45 days for oil combustion and 59 days for natural gas to achieve comparable warming to that generated by burning the respective fuel. This shows that global warming does not take years and decades for its effects to be felt, shows a study by climate scientists at the Carnegie Institution for Science. "Ultimately, the warming induced by carbon dioxide over the...
Study: Global warming risks changes ocean life unprecedented 3 million years

Washington Post: Continued warming of the Earths oceans over the next century could trigger disruptions to marine life on a scale not seen in the last 3 million years, scientists warn in a study released Monday. The changes could include extinctions of some of the oceans keystone species as well as a widespread influx of invasive animals and plants that migrate to new territory because of changing environmental conditions, the report says. But the most dramatic disruptions would likely be averted if the...
